IISER Kolkata is located in Haringhata. You can reach IISER
by road or <a href="#train">train</a>.</p>
<p style="font-size:small; width:80%">
The fares for the various commutes between Kanchrapara and our campus
were taken from an IISER brochure. The fares will obviously
change (most likely increase) as time passes. The <a href="#traintimes">
train timings</a> have been updated on 11 January 2009. Though train
schedules do not change often, it is a good idea to get a copy of the
railway timetable from a station.
